    There was a very unpleasant stench in the bathroom attached to room 202. The pillows need replacing. I felt it was over priced.

    Good location to the centre of town.

    The building was kind of old but the real disadvantage for us was the absence of an elevator. This was a problem for us only because we were doing El Camino de Santiago and we arrived there after enough km.

    The Pension was what we were looking for, so we didn't expect something more. It was thoughtful there were extra blankets because it was a bit cold at night. It was a quiet place and we slept well. There is also a restaurant in the pension which we considered a advantage although we arrived too late to eat there. The ubication was ideal because you could reach everything essential by walking.

    The owners should invest in renovating the rooms. It's definitely a 60s time warp experience.

    Dispute average to low ratings on Booking.com, my expectations were not high. The room was clean, the place quiet. We slept well.

    For the camino traveller it was useless. No washing facilities, no drying facilities, no use of a kitchen. Just a bed and a shower

    Rude staff. Lady at desk took my payment in cash, then 5 minutes later wanted to charge me again (she didn't remember I had already paid). So I asked her to give me a receipt and she refused. She finally remembered I had already paid. Because the only room available at time of booking had 3 beds, that's what I booked, even though we were just 2. She told me not to touch the extra bed.

    Close to camino de Santiago

    Good price but bad experience while checking inn!!

    Room was good for the price. we shared the room with 3 persons because we were all walking the Camino. But we felt not welcomed. I had to show them my booking confirmation 3 times and we had to leave no later then 8 in the morning, while the booking confirmation stated 11 in the morning. Also they first asked us to pay in cash. After a short protest it was possible in the end.

    Central location in Arzua, good for the Camino and nice and quiet so easy to sleep. Good bathroom with decent shower pressure and the reception lady was helpful

    Firstly we had to climb 3 flights of stairs to get to our room . The room was very old fashioned. The blankets on the bed were from the 80s . The bathroom had no fan to leave out the steam so the tiles on the floor and walls were still wet the morning after which could be very dangerous as it could lead to a person getting a fall . The shower head fell off its holder a few times . Outside the bedroom window is a polycarbonate/ plastic flat roof and the weather was very wet and you could hear the rain fall incessantly onto it which was very noisy. I would not give this property any stars it needs major reform .

    I did not like the property

    Didn't get much help after checking in, remote for TV not working. I believed I was getting a hotel room when in actual fact we were pretty much frog marched a few hundred yards up the street to what I believe was a home. Description of the place was wrong in every aspect.

    The owner was rude and impatient and did not listen to me when I interacted with her unless I repeated myself several times. The beds were the hardest I slept on of pension I stayed at on the Camino. Although the windows of the room opened, air circulation was poor, and the room was still stuffy. For the price, I expect air conditioning or some other amenity aside from the basic expectation of a clean room.

    The only nice thing I can say about the property is that it’s clean, and our room had a decent view of the countryside. It did look like the pictures online.
